"or would it become an entirely seperate republic?"

Good question. Would it choose to remain in the Commonwealth? Is there still a Commonwealth?

Well, there is still a Commonwealth. Canada, Australia, and New Zealand (I believe) are still part of it, as a matter of fact.

Yes, there is still a Commonwealth. But it's more of a quasi-official grouping now—much like the United Nations, except with less legitimacy.
